Not for Germany

  • As nice as the extension is, so useless is this for Germany. Not DSGVO compliant. Googlefonts are loaded automatically.
    And quite expensive.

  • Could you explain more about Google fonts etc?

    The tool is delivered via a cdn. However, when the tool is called, goolefonts are automatically loaded. This is unfortunately not allowed in Germany. Privacy policy. With lawyer so clarified. There is no “legitimate interest”.

    Hi, fonts are now not loaded automatically from Google, they are loaded by the Zakeke cdn. That is fully GDPR compliant. We are a EU company and we are under the same rules.

    It’s well explained here: https://usercentrics.com/knowledge-hub/google-fonts-gdpr-compliant/

    Option 1:

    Option 1: Host Google Fonts locally on the server
    If Google Fonts is integrated by default via the Google server, a connection to Google is established each time the page is called up. From a legal point of view, the consent of the website user would be required here in order to operate under proper GDPR regulations.

    Those who do not want to venture into legally insecure territory have the option of integrating Google Fonts locally. This way, the fonts are loaded from your own server and not from the Google servers. The legal framework here could be construed as a “legitimate interest”, as no data is sent to third parties.
